MOJI

MOJI is an unofficial Java client for the Moss plagiarism detection service. It has the following key features:

  • Pure Java implementation with few dependencies
  • Cross-platform support

Requirements

  • Java 6 or better
  • Apache Commons IO 2.3

Installation

Use either of the following methods to obtain a MOJI binary.

  • add as Maven dependency:

      <dependency>
      	<groupId>it.zielke</groupId>
      	<artifactId>moji</artifactId>
      	<version>1.0.1</version>
      </dependency>
    
  • download the JAR and include it in your Java project.

  • build it yourself using Maven and include the JAR in your Java project.

Quick Start

1. Preparation

MOJI requires some kind of Moss-compatible directory structure to distinguish between different students.

To achieve this, copy all student source codes to a directory where each subdirectory contains the source code of a single student.

A valid directory containing student solutions might look like this:

solution_directory
|- student1
   |- classA.java
   |- ...
|- student2
   |- ...
|_ student3
   |- ...

2. Download the JAR (or build it yourself) and include it in your project.

3. Create a new socket client object to communicate with the Moss server.

Example code

import java.io.File;
import java.util.Collection;
import java.net.URL;
import org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils;
import it.zielke.moji.SocketClient;

public class QuickStart {
	public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
		// a list of students' source code files located in the prepared
		// directory.
		Collection<File> files = FileUtils.listFiles(new File(
			"C:\\temp\\solution_directory"), new String[] { "java" }, true);

		// a list of base files that was given to the students for this
		// assignment.
		Collection<File> baseFiles = FileUtils.listFiles(new File(
			"C:\\temp\\base_directory"), new String[] { "java" }, true);
		
		//get a new socket client to communicate with the Moss server
		//and set its parameters.
		SocketClient socketClient = new SocketClient();
		
		//set your Moss user ID
		socketClient.setUserID("123456789");
		//socketClient.setOpt...
		
		//set the programming language of all student source codes
		socketClient.setLanguage("java");
		
		//initialize connection and send parameters
		socketClient.run();
		
		// upload all base files
		for (File f : baseFiles) {
			socketClient.uploadBaseFile(f);
		}
		
		//upload all source files of students
		for (File f : files) {
			socketClient.uploadFile(f);
		}
		
		//finished uploading, tell server to check files
		socketClient.sendQuery();
		
		//get URL with Moss results and do something with it
		URL results = socketClient.getResultURL();
		System.out.println("Results available at " + results.toString());
	}
}
